Introducing.......

Pressed Mineral Foiling Eyeshadows!

Foiling is one of my favorite ways to apply eyeshadow, I created this eyeshadow specifically for foiling. I find that foiling brings out the intensity of the shimmer in these colors. If you search for foiling techniques on you tube, you will see that people suggest using several different ingredients to foil you eyeshadow with. I wanted these shadows to be as simple and easy to apply as possible so all you need is water! After they have dried they are still very blendable. I love the adorable jewel colored boxes I found, they are perfect for travel.

First up is "Michelle", a shimmery pink with hints of peach and gold. I like to wear this one alone when I'm in quick hurry.

Welcome to Sminked!

This is my inaugural post!

Let's start with a little color inspiration..... When i first decided to create my SminkSmink cosmetics line I had only one goal in mind, Unique colors that make any ensemble fashionable and up to date. I also wanted SminkSmink to complement my Housewares, Art and Jewelry that I sell under the name Bakasartysta. My signature coasters and jewelry are oftern an explosion of color and a patterns that add a special pop to any out fit or decor. The nail colors are an expression of that, Whether it's a subdued white with little sparks of yellow and gold ( Onari Special Edition) that are super bold on your fingers or an all over bold color like Finlay (Special Edition).

This dress by Basso and Brooke encapsulates all those ideas...I first came across Basso and Brooke when researching the fabulous shoe designer Julia Lundsten, I've been coveting her shoes for awhile now and Basso and Brooke featured her in thier Spring 2010 collection.
